What is ODCR.com

ODCR.com is a privately-operated website that provides access to public court records from many counties in Oklahoma. (odcr.com)
It lists a wide variety of courts: district courts, tribal courts, etc. (odcr.com)
The operator is KellPro, Inc., a company that scans, hosts and provides access (under subscription/fee) to those records. (The Frontier)

How it works

  • You go to ODCR.com, pick the court/county, or search by party name, case number, etc. (odcr.com)

  • To access full records you generally need to pay/sub-scribe. ODCR is behind a paywall for many documents. (The Frontier)

  • The site also allows online payments for court services in some jurisdictions. (odcr.com)

  • It covers a large number of counties; the site claims many courts are “up to date”. (odcr.com)

Benefits / what works well

  • Convenience: for people needing records from rural or less-accessible counties in Oklahoma, ODCR can save the trip to the courthouse.

  • Broad coverage: it lists many courts and types of cases: civil, criminal, family/domestic, etc. (odcr.com)

  • Online payment / access features: helps modernize parts of the court-records/filing process.

Criticisms / things to watch

  • Paywall on public records: Even though the underlying records are public, ODCR charges for access. One article noted that “users … must pay someone else to give them” records that are public. (The Frontier)

  • Advertising concerns: The site includes advertisements; the monetisation model (ads + pay access) for court records raised concerns. (The Frontier)

  • Coverage gaps / state website overlap: The state of Oklahoma runs its own records site (OSCN) which offers free access for many courts. Some records covered by ODCR might also be available via the state site — so you may be paying when you could go free. (The Frontier)

  • Privacy / data exposure issues: Because full filings may show detailed info (addresses, phone numbers, etc), some users and advocates raise concerns about how data is exposed online. (The Frontier)

Use-cases: when it might make sense

  • If you need records from a county where the state free site does not provide them online (and ODCR covers that county).

  • If you need older archived records (depending on how far back ODCR has scanned).

  • If you need online convenience and are willing to pay for it.

Use-cases: when it might not make sense

  • If the record you need is available for free via the state website. It's worth checking.

  • If cost is a concern and you could go to the courthouse in person (or via public terminals) instead.

  • If the record includes very sensitive personal info and you’re concerned about privacy/exposure.

Key takeaways

  • ODCR.com is a paid access platform for Oklahoma public court records, operated by a private company.

  • It offers convenience and broad coverage, but you should check if the record you need is available free elsewhere.

  • There are trade-offs: cost, privacy/exposure risks, and the fact that you’re not necessarily getting something the state doesn’t provide.

  • Always compare: free state-run systems vs paid third-party services.

  • Be mindful of terms: when you access records via ODCR you may be subject to terms of use (e.g., restrictions on how you use the information).

FAQ

Q: Is ODCR.com the only way to access Oklahoma court records?
A: No. The state-run system OSCN (Oklahoma Supreme Court Network) offers many records for free. ODCR covers many counties but not necessarily all, and for some users ODCR may be the only online route for some counties. (The Frontier)

Q: How much does it cost?
A: Costs vary. One article noted “$50 a month subscription” for access for lawyers to many counties. (The Frontier) Some counties may allow pay-per-case access via ODCR. You’ll need to check current pricing on the ODCR site.

Q: Are the records guaranteed to be up to date?
A: The site claims to keep courts “up to date” and lists “71 courts up to date / zero behind schedule” in one snapshot. (odcr.com) However real-world coverage may vary depending on county scanning, uploads, etc.

Q: Can I search for criminal records, civil records, family law, etc?
A: Yes — the site supports a broad set of case types: criminal (felony, misdemeanor), civil, family/domestic, probate, traffic tickets, etc. (odcr.com)

Q: What are the privacy/risks?
A: Because many filings include sensitive or identifying data (addresses, phone numbers, sometimes SSNs unless redacted), public availability can raise concerns. Some counties have removed certain filings from free sites for that reason. (The Frontier)
